As a hydrating ingredient, cannabis sativa leaf/stem water works as a humectant. This means it draws water from the environment and the deeper layers of skin into the stratum corneum (the outer barrier), helping to plump and soften the skin's surface.The conditioning action comes from water-soluble plant compounds that coat the skin lightly, improving texture and reducing transepidermal water loss.

Cannabis sativa leaf/stem water is typically found as one ingredient among many in hydrating serums, toners, and moisturisers. Use it as directed in your product instructions — usually daily as part of your regular skincare routine. It pairs well with occlusive moisturisers to seal in hydration.

This ingredient is generally well-tolerated and suitable for most skin types. As it is water-soluble and contains no cannabinoids, it carries no psychoactive effects.
